Hello, Trying to cut a part on a ProtoTrak SLX. Has a few radius and will not cut part to how fusion shows it. Have tried all the post in here and can't get it to run proper. If anyone has any other information I'd really appreciate it! Also before I run part a message comes up "Mill to mill compensation Failed" and I have to click through a hundred or so and then runs. Thank you!

Hey @Anonymous, is it possible to upload your design or attach it here so we can take a look?

Export and save to your computer as .F3d and then attach it to a post here.

Cheers.

Also, unchecking Spun Profile in the setup will solve the Mill to Mill tool compensation error.

I just bought a prototrak lathe.  Can you upload the post?

I have attached the post that works for my 2013 Prototrak 1630SX. Use at your own risk and trak/verify all programs.

It is also important to know...
When setting up your tools in the prototrak lathe. Lets use a DNMG332 as our example tool and it will be tool number 1.

Set it as a right hand turning tool in the prototrak control. Than touch x and z axis off as normal and enter the values. For the tool radius, use a value of zero.

Model the correct tool in fusion and it will do the tool nose radius comp in the software.

When posting, Reverse g02 & G03 should say yes. Any more questions I'll be happy to help

I’m not sure why my lathe won’t cut a radius properly. Does everything perfect except for that. Anyone know?

[morgantooldie]

Upload f3d file. Did you put tool radius as 0 in potortrak control when you set your tool up 

[morgantooldie]

1. What’s not right about it?
2. is reverse g2/g3 checked in post settings

I saw to try that, I will run it in next 20 mines and see if that fixes it
